Guest guest Posted June 10, 2001 Report Share Posted June 10, 2001 jb [kvy9] Sunday, June 10, 2001 5:22 PM Re: Mira/ Thanks and Welcome Hi Harsha, Iron cannot or very difficult, be removed from the body... It accumulates and that is one of the most serious health related reasons for abstaining from meat consumption - because the human body has no alternative but to absorb the iron. Cancer or not, I forgot, not being a meat-eater that is irrelevant. Iron from green leaves together with veggies containing lots of vitamin C - unless handicapped with abnormal digestion, that's enough for the body to get the iron it needs.. The issue of iron-poisoning appeared in several threads on usenet medical groups, some years ago. Love, Jan Thanks for sharing that Jan. I remember that story was in the news and then disappeared. I have often thought that a salad consisting of tomatoes, broccoli, spinach would be rich in iron that could be easily absorbed. Unfortunately for some people their stomach does not seem to tolerate raw foods due to perhaps allergies. The matter of diet is highly unique to each individual it seems and only they can be best judges of their needs. Pregnant women have higher needs of iron and are advised to take supplements by their doctors. Maybe the women can speak more authoritatively on the topic of iron as they lose some every month.

According to some, the loss of blood during menstruation is a kind of "house cleaning" that will stop when the house is clean already. Anyway, it "worked" for one of my sisters who had so much trouble with bleeding that for a few days, she had to minimize all movements, couldn't leave the house. There will be some info on the web or in books on NH... Love, Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
